You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
Ask whether assignment is available for your policy and location, what fees apply, and what you must pay upfront. MedaSynq does not arrange assignments.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
Know Your Rights
Under the FTC Funeral Rule, funeral homes must give price information by telephone and a written General Price List when you visit in person. Federal law does not require them to send the list by mail or email. You can select individual goods and services and use a casket purchased elsewhere.

“I want to express my deepest gratitude to Mike, who helped us at the funeral home during an incredibly difficult time. From the moment we walked in, he made us feel welcomed and supported. He was kind, transparent throughout the entire process, and incredibly diligent. Mike always made himself available, no matter the time or day, to answer any questions or concerns we had. His words of comfort and genuine compassion truly made a difference for our family. Even though we met under sad circumstances, I feel fortunate to have crossed paths with him and to have done business with someone so caring and professional. Thank you, Mike, for everything you did for us.”

“When my brother passed suddenly in Youngstown I was prompted to find a funeral home to assist me in bringing him to peace. Not being from Ohio I called several places and by far Mike at Augustine was the most compassionate and thorough individual I spoke to. From the first phone conversation to our face to face meeting I knew I was in great hands. He absolutely went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and assisted in ways that were above the call of his duty. This was so reassuring and comforting through a very sad and difficult time. I cannot say enough positive words to describe my experience. If you are looking for somewhere that treats you like a business then this is not the place for you. However if you want to be in the best hands and treated like a family member then I highly recommend choosing Mike at Augustine funeral home.”
